Re: Optimal block size in raid set for Hansa.hdb

The database internal block size is 512 bytes.


The best performance for normal operations (saving records, reading records, reports, maintenances) will likely be as small a block-size as possible.

Operations such as making a copy of the database file might perform better with a large block size as these are sequential copies.

Imports of text backups is likely not affected much by the block size as long as RAM is sufficient.
